First time posting in this thread - just submitted my application. Visited campus a few weeks ago and stayed with a friend who is a first year and had a great time. Really loved the school after visiting.

Who are the other EA candidates who got a jolt through their system when they saw the email today with the subject "The Duke MBA - Early Action"??

I was surprised to see it and thought it may have been a decision. But its good that they are reminding people so that candidates don't try to game the EA system.

It seems to be a gentle reminder that Early Action is binding (their bold not mine).
What I'm wondering - is why is the email subject so ambiguous? My heart stopped because I thought it was an early admit (as I'm sure everyone elses did)

I also recived the email, but expected it would be a ding email, given i did not get any interview invitation.

So can I assume I would not be admitted if I am not invited to interview so far.

Not necessarily. You can be waitlisted and invited to interview with R1, R2, etc. Good luck!

do the waitlisted candidates only get to hear back on the next cycle's interview notification date, or they may be called for an interview anytime.

For e.g. Nov 28 is R1 interview notification date. EA waitlisted candidates only hear back on 28th or before/after that date as well (depending upon the information they provide to the adcom) ?

Your status would update when the next round's results are available. I think the only time you can hear back at any time is if you're waitlisted after round 3 and into the summer.

Okay let me re-phrase my question:

What about the interviews (not results). Can waitlisted (without interview) candidates be called for an interview anytime other than the notification date for the next round.

For eg. on nov 28 r1 folks get interview invites. And a waitlisted candidate then in early december provides an updated information (gmat score/promotion etc.). So can the adcom call him/her for an interview to be considered for r1 decision date?

I ask this because unlike r1 folks, waitlisted candidates will be providing information continuously throughout the round. Does my question make better sense now?

Good question.

It is my understanding (and i might be wrong)..that if you do not get an interview in the EA round and get WL, you can still be invited to interview during the interview window...Unlike the open period, i believe it's a week in december and a week in feb for R2.

But yes..if you are WL during EA it is by no means game over. With a good WL strategy, you can get that interview and the decision. I'm sure quite a few people have done it that way...from EA WL to converting a round 2 admit...

For R1, you'll either be invited or not invited to interview on Nov 28.

Then on decision day in January you'll find out if you were accepted (for those who interviewed) or if you're waitlisted/rejected (for both those who interviewed AND for those not invited to interview in Nov).

If you're WL in January and have already interviewed, you wait until you get a decision - either during the R2/R3 decision dates or later on anytime in the summer.

If you were WL without interview on the January decision date, then you can be invited to interview on the R2 invite day. You can also not be invited again and then you'll have to wait until the R2 decision date to see if you remain on the waitlist or if you're rejected.

Continue the pattern for R3.

While you can submit additional information anytime after you're WL, you will only receive status updates on the invite or decision dates, unless it's after R3/the summer months as all the official deadline dates would have already passed by then.

Does that help?

That's strange, I got that email too. I assumed every EA applicant gets it since the content is not specific.
